Supported hardware and software
In those instances in which procedures or parts of procedures documented here apply to some
switches but not to others, this guide identifies which switches are supported and which are not.

running M-EOSc 9.1 or later, M-EOSn must be running 9.6.2 or later, and Cisco switches with SAN
OS must be running 3.0 (1) and 3.1 (1) or later.
